It’s war! HBO has dropped a new teaser trailer for House of the Dragon season 3. There’s plenty of dragon action as the divided factions of House Targaryen face off against one another. The season features a massive battle sequence that was originally slated for the second season but was bumped after the second season’s episode count was reduced to eight. You can check that out above.
When Will House of the Dragon season 3 Debut?
House of the Dragon season 3 still doesn’t have an exact release date, but the teaser trailer confirms the new season will debut in June.
House of the Dragon Season 4 will be the Final Season
HBO Chief Casey Bloys recently confirmed that House of the Dragon will conclude with season 4. “Yes, that is the idea,” he said. “The idea has always been to follow the history of the Targaryens. If you know the books, you know how the Targaryens end up. So there is a natural end to this particular history of that House of the Targaryens.“
Bloys isn’t sure how many episodes will be included in the final season. “Ryan is working, like any show like this; he is finishing post on Season 3 and working with the writers on what Season 4 looks like,” he said. “I don’t know where he’s landed on the episode count yet.“
What About George R.R. Martin?
A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin has been very candid with his thoughts about House of the Dragon, and even recently said that his relationship with Condal has been “abysmal.” When asked to describe the network’s current relationship with Martin, Bloys said, “Like any good American family, I would prefer that our dysfunction stays behind closed doors. But here we are. What I would say is George introduced us to Ryan as the person that he thought would be the best to create House the Dragon. And I will say Ryan has been an excellent showrunner and a really great partner and collaborator, so we embrace his vision and his creative choices, or we wouldn’t have done it.“
Martin has been much more complimentary about A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which will wrap up its first season this weekend.
